Search, Lord, for thou canst tell If aught can raise my passions thus, Or please my soul so well. 5 No; thou art precious to my heart, My portion and my joy: For ever let thy boundless grace My sweetest thoughts employ.

The vail of sense hangs dark between Thy blessed face and mine! 2 I see thee not, I hear thee not, Yet art thou oft with me; And earth has ne'er so dear a spot, As where I meet with thee. 3 Like some bright dream that comes unsought, When slumbers o'er me roll, Thine image ever fills my thought, And charms my ravished soul. 4 Yet though I have not seen, and still Must rest in faith alone; I love thee, dearest Lord! and will, Unseen, but not unknown. 5 When death these mortal eyes shall seal, And still this throbbing heart, The rending vail shall thee reveal, All glorious as thou art!

Shield and Sun, Shepherd, Brother, Lord, and Friend Every precious name in one! I will love thee without end.
